There are many things that are better together, not the least of which (from the mom's POV anyway) is a combo birthday party for siblings that were born just weeks apart.
By now you're probably thinking that we've moved to Edina given the amount of cake we've been eating around here the past couple weeks. But brace yourself. Max's birthday isn't until February 2nd.
In theory the combo birthday party was supposed to cut down on the quantity of cake this month, but in practice it seems to have just added another party in addition to the boy's actual birthdays. Oops.
For the boy's party we had our family over for dinner. When Joe's Grandma Gloria was alive, she made the best spaghetti and homemade meatballs. She rolled the meatballs super tiny and made the sauce sweet and tangy - unlike any I've ever had. Way better than any I've ever had. Here's Joe making the meatballs for the party...
Another thing that's better together are cousins! Quintin, Grace & Lyla are our nephew and nieces here in the Cities and Max & Otto were so excited to have them over for their party. They adore them and love spending time with them any chance they get!
Otto LOVES his cousin Lyla, especially saying her name
Quintin & Max
And with me
If one cake is good, two cakes are even better.
